Reputed mobster Angelo Prisco sentenced in federal court

One of New Jersey's notorious reputed mobsters has been sentenced to life in prison for a role in his cousin's murder.

Angelo Prisco was sentenced in federal court in Manhattan on Tuesday. He was convicted in April of murder, racketeering, robbery, extortion and other crimes.

Prosecutors say he arranged the June 1992 murder of his cousin, Angelo Sangiuolo. The government says the murder was ordered by Vincent "The Chin" Gigante because Gigante thought Sangiuolo had stolen from a member of the family.

Prosecutors say Prisco joined the Genovese organized crime family in the late 1970s.
